This is your opportunity to participate in the first bike race ever to cross the Golden Gate Bridge!

At the start of Stage Two, on February 16, 2009, a limited number of VIP cyclists will have the opportunity of a lifetime: to pedal across the Golden Gate Bridge, following cycling legend Lance Armstrong -- 7-time winner of the Tour de France -- and the ATOC peloton. This is an historic ride – no bike race has ever crossed the bridge before and you can be a part of it!

The cost to follow Lance Armstrong* & an internationally acclaimed peloton of professional riders across the Golden Gate Bridge: Priceless!

A Ride to Remember Opportunity: $500.00
